Here’s this week’s vegan meal plan:

Monday

Roasted Vegetable Sandwiches with Creamy Chimichurri Spread // Creamy silken tofu-based chimichurri spread takes these roasted veggie sandwiches from good to over the top delicious.

Tuesday

Vegan Fettuccine Kalefredo // This vegan spin on fettuccine Alfredo packs an added nutritional and flavor punch, thanks to the addition of garlicky sautéed kale.

Wednesday

Chipotle Black Bean & Sweet Potato Chili // Sweet potatoes are the perfect compliment to smoky, spicy chipotle peppers in this easy and flavorful vegan chili.

Thursday

Freezer Friendly Greens & Tofu Scramble Wraps // If you were ever a fan of scrambled eggs, you’ll probably love these savory scrambled tofu wraps.

Friday

Slow Cooker Vegetarian Gumbo // This easy vegan gumbo uses lots of veggies in place of the seafood you’d find in traditional gumbo recipes.

Tips for This Week’s Vegan Meal Plan

• Mondays veggie sandwich recipe is the only one that calls for grapeseed oil, so we left it off the list. Use whatever high smoke point oil you’ve got on  hand.
• You’ll probably end up with a couple of leftover tofu scramble wraps on Thursday. As the name implies, they freeze well! You can also stick them into the fridge and have Friday’s breakfast ready at hand.
• We put a big bunch of kale on the list, for Tuesday’s kalefredo and Thursday’s wraps. Feel free to grab a small bunch, along with another bunch of spinach or chard if you’d prefer to use a different type of greens in the wraps.
• You’ll have some leftover tofu when you make Tuesday’s kalefredo. Tofu freezes well, so seal it up and freeze it for later.
• Wednesday’s chili recipe makes a nice-sized batch. Check out our post on 4 ways to use leftover chili for some inspiration on how to use the leftovers.
• We added a bunch of scallions to the list as topping for Wednesday’s chili and Friday’s gumbo.
